The Airfix Supermarine Spitfire Mk.VIII Model Kit is the perfect addition to your Airfix model collection.

This new super-kit features several new parts to enable the accurate creation of a Mk.VIII. The new parts include: upper and lower wing surface, short span ailerons, a retractable tailwheel section, a revised instrument panel and a repositioned fuselage light.

One of the most impressive features associated with the enduring legacy of the Spitfire is how its basic design was able to be adapted and upgraded so effectively throughout the Second World War and how the final variants of this magnificent aircraft were far more capable that the ones which first arrived at RAF Duxford during the summer of 1938.

This variant of Spitfire served primarily with units based overseas, with the RAF in the Mediterranean, Middle and Far East and the RAAF in the South West Pacific. Many pilots who flew several marks of this famous fighter regarded the Mk.VIII as the best flying Spitfire of them all.
